Session 11: Improving quality: Case studies Use cases on how to monitor and improve E2E performance José Ruy - Product Manager at jose.ruy@bwtech.com Who is speaking ? • José Ruy - Brazilian, from Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais • Electrical Engineer, specialized in Telecommunications and Computer Science by UFMG, with MBA in project management by FGV • In the telecom industry for over 11 years • Product Manager of an OSS-Based solution software • This software won as the best one in its category in well know events of the industry in LATAM (2016), MENA (2017) and Africa (2017) QoS, QoE: something to think • Are the networks working 100% with no fails ? • If the network has no fails, QoS = 100%, what would be the QoE ? • And if still the QoE is not 100%, what can you do ? QoS: what can we do to improve it • A good network performance is the 1st step • Problems can be basically at the network, the UE or the interfaces (air, fiber) • We will tackle Network problems OSS Data end-to-end OSS – Operation Support System OSS – Data Reporting OSS – What Data • CM: Configuration Management • PM: Performance Management • FM: Fault • TM: Traces • LM: Licenses • HM: Hardware Equipment with no OSS CORE, Microwave, IP Equipment with no OSS Equipment with no OSS – Data Reporting Network Monitoring End to end Network Monitoring End to End • Many different equipments • Unified view: reduce complexity • Use Case: operator NOC – Network Operation Center – 24 x 7 Use case: Unified View Network Monitoring End to End - Identify • Something is outside the thresholds • Something is outside the normal behavior • Something will probably be outside the normal behavior Network Optimization Solving the problem Network Optimization – solving the problem • Found the bad performance element, what now ? • Too much data… Correlation! PM, CM, FM • But… What if the problem is not in the element itself ? CM change found! Network Optimization End to end Network Optimization – end to end • Use case: transmission affecting cell downlink throughput Session 11: Improving quality: Case studies José Ruy - Product Manager at jose.ruy@bwtech.com
